Tailors in Vietnam for groups and wedding parties

Almost half of these shops, 112 of the 231, are in Hoi An, and some are set up for volume. Two Ladies Tailor has a team of 15 tailors and, according to reviews, handled a group of 14 travelers in a single day. At Bao Diep Tailor 2 a bridal party order of eight suits plus a gown and coats was finished within 3 days, and Blue Eye Tailor quotes two to three days with a couple of fitting rounds for groups of five or more suits and dresses.

Plan the schedule around the slowest piece. Yaly Couture Exclusive allows 3-5 days for orders of 10-16 pieces and for wedding dresses, and at Mr. XE the tailor inspects every piece himself, so large orders and wedding outfits can stretch over several days. Get everyone measured on the first day so each person has time for two fittings.

If part of the group leaves early, ask about forwarding. Bari Tailor sent one group's finished suits on to Saigon after they left Hoi An, and 117 of the 231 shops ship internationally. Across the 47 shops with a reported figure, the median price for a suit is US$200. Ask for the price per piece and a group total before the measuring starts, and see the tailor prices guide for typical figures.
